Booked by 35 families in Lake Zurich, IL

Hi there! My name is Caitlyn and I am 30 years old with over 13 years of true nannying and babysitting experience. I first started babysitting neighborhood kids at age 15, quickly becoming the go to babysitter on my block for date nights. I was a full time nanny for 2 kiddos (7 & 10) in Evanston the summer of 2014, and a full time overnight camp counselor the summer before that for a cabin full of 8 year olds. Right after graduating from Loyola in 2017, I became a teachers assistant at a private preschool/daycare in Lakeview, helping out with all classrooms from newborns-5 years. Experienced with children of all ages, I love supporting continuous development and growth and take a lot of pride in my ability to connect with and teach children; I am punctual, experienced, and would like to think lots of fun :) After working in tech sales for 5 years, my heart called me back to early childhood, and after being a short term nanny for a 3mo old girl before she began daycare full time last summer, I began teaching in Children’s House (3-5 years) at Guidepost Montessori. My fiancé and I just moved to Fox River Grove to be closer to family, so I’m available in the surrounding areas most weekday evenings after 5:30-6pm, and occasional weekends! Can’t wait to hear from you :)

Booked by 2 families in Lake Zurich, IL

I am a sweet and reliable baby sitter with Pediatric First Aid, CPR, and AED certification. Currently studying at Wright College. Also, I am bilingual (Spanish and English ) I have experience with children as a volunteer at a church daycare in Mexico as teen. I also have 2 younger siblings now 11 and 15 who I helped take care of as babies. Additionally, I have worked for 3 families in Chicago. I am willing to do small chores around the house as well.

Monica was kind, responsible, prompt and capable. She was great with our baby and our dog, and was comfortable with the direction I gave her. She helped my 16.5 month old, get more comfortable with using a spoon, and he seemed more talkative following her stay. She was great at active play with my son, and even took him to the park. Will definitely be using her again.

Kayla Libertyville
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Kayla, and I'm currently a union electrical apprentice that works full time and goes to school. I grew up and currently live in Libertyville with my fiancé and 3 cats. In my free time I love to ski and ride my motorcycle. I'm currently a part time nanny and am looking for other part time nanny work and or occasional babysitting gigs. **Fun babysitting is my specialty** I'm not a "turn the TV on and play on my phone" sitter. If your kids are playing a game or running around, I'm doing it with them, not just watching. I love spending time with kids and I can't wait to meet yours! :)

Jocelyn Schaumburg
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi there, my name is Josie! I’m 20 years old and currently live in the northwest suburbs of IL. I have a background in business entrepreneurship, but one of my many passion lies in caregiving and working with children. My most recent role was as a Youth Development Professional for a nonprofit organization, where I had the pleasure of working with children ranging from infants to middle schoolers. I’ve been involved in childcare informally since I was 14 and began working professionally at 18. I am CPR and First Aid certified, ensuring the safety and well-being of the children in my care. I truly enjoy engaging with kids during both playtime and feedings. Quiet moments like nap time are very special to me. Colleagues often describe me as kind, hardworking, intelligent, and easygoing. In addition to childcare, I offer services such as cleaning, cooking, and organizing. For families with pets, I’m also happy to help with walking and feeding. Outside of work, I enjoy hobbies like cooking, exercising, painting, and dancing. I love building strong connections with both children and their families and would be honored to support your household :)
